each morning papa notes the birds feeding on his birdfeeder. so far this month he has seen 59 blue jays, 68 black crows, 12 red robins and 1 cardinal. What is the probability of a blue jay being the next bird papa sees?
Answer:
Probability is the chance of an event occuring. It is obtained by the formula number of outcomes / total number of possible outcomes. The probability of a blue jay being the next bird papa sees is given by number of blue jays / total number of birds = 59 / (59 +68 + 12 + 1) = 59 / 140 = 0.4214
